I'm easing back into running. Uncomfortably so. I've got some discomfort in my inner calves/shins. Medial shin splits, I'm guessing. Overuse/Undertrained foray into marathons. Mentally, I'm having a hard time telling myself it's okay not to run - to crosstrain with something less impact to let the legs rest/recover. I want to stay to the schedule because I feel like if I fall off now, I'm in big trouble for the long haul.
I am going over to BPRC tonight (if I get out of work at a decent hour) to discuss with them. I read earlier today that the problem may be I'm overpronating in the shoes. Maybe some inserts would help stabilize a little more. Maybe compression sleeves might help. I just don't know.
Oh no - so sorry to hear you're having so much pain! I hope you find something that works for you - like the sleeves. :(
